He, with his integrity came to the point, twice in Rome, gaining experience in monumental art.

But the painting was engaged in weight is less and less, and in the last decade of his life almost never picked up a brush. artist ever more distant from people, even from their own pupils, sometimes a teacher who had not seen for weeks. Besides his position zealous guardian of the foundations of academic bred dislike of the youth.
